Random question: Is Bromley in London or Kent?

I've lived in Orpington all my life and has always felt like an outer London place. Yet we have bus links to areas in Central London and other areas in the East of the capital. My postcode is Kent, my landline is an 01 number (Kent) and letters to my address says Kent, not London. But Bromley is within the M25, we have London transport and some parts of the borough (like Crystal Palace and Anerley) have the SE postcode.Anyone have an idea?

It's a part of London. It has been since 1965, and it's urbanized a lot since then. I understand what you mean, though. Bromley has its rural parts, but so does pretty much any other London borough, even the Inner London boroughs.
